Judeo-spanish Lyrics
Avrid me, galanica
que ya va 'manecer.
Avrid me no vos avro, mi lindo amor.
Esta noche yo no duermo,
pemsando en vos
Yale, yale, yale, bombon.
Mi padre 'sta meldando*,
mos ojera.
Amatalde la luzezica [candela],
asi se dormira,
Amatalde la luzezica,
asi se echara.
Mi madre 'sta cuziendo [portando],
mos ojera.
Pedrelde la agujica,
asi se dormira.
Pedrelde la agujica,
asi se echara.
Mi hermano 'sta 'scribiendo,
mos ojera.
Pedrelde la pendolica,
asi se dormira.
Pedrelde la pendolica,
asi se echara.
Translation
Open the door, my dear girl,
before the sun rises.
I must not open the door for you,
but I cannot sleep
since I think of you.
Yale, ...
My father is still reading,
he will hear us.
Turn off the light
and he will fall asleep.
My mother is doing needlework
she will hear us.
Hide her needle
and she will fall asleep.
My brother ...
